Solution:
So,
It is given that the area of the circle 3rd circle = Area of 1st circle + Area of 2nd circle
R2 = 100cm2
So, R = 10cm
3. Fig. 12.3 depicts an archery target marked with its five scoring regions from
the centre outwards as Gold, Red, Blue, Black and White. The diameter of the
region representing the Gold score is 21 cm, and each of the other bands is
10.5 cm wide. Find the area of each of the five scoring regions.
Solution:
Thus,
∴ area of red region = Area of 2nd circle − Area of gold region = (πr22−346.5) cm2
= (π(21)2 − 346.5) cm2
= 1386 − 346.5
= 1039.5 cm2
Similarly,
∴ area of the blue region (n=3) = Area of the third circle – Area of the second circle
= 1732.5 cm2
∴ area of the black region (n=4) = Area of the fourth circle – Area of the third circle
= 2425.5 cm2
∴ area of the white region (n=5) = Area of the fifth circle – Area of the fourth circle
= 3118.5 cm2
=( 11×105)/80 π = 4375.

1. Find the area of a sector of a circle with a radius 6 cm if the angle of the
sector is 60°.
Solution:
= (36/6)π cm2
Solution:
As C = 2πr = 22,
R = 22/2π cm = 7/2 cm
Here, θ = 90°
= (49/16) π cm2
Solution:
So, the angle swept by the minute hand in 5 minutes = 360° × 5/60 = 30°
We know,
Now, the area of the sector making an angle of 30° = (30°/360°) × πr 2 cm2
= (1/12) × π142
= (49/3)×(22/7) cm2
= 154/3 cm2
Solution:
Here, AB is the chord which is subtending an angle 90° at the centre O.
= (¼)×(22/7)×102
= 50 cm2
Now, area of minor segment = area of the minor sector – the area of ΔAOB
= 78.5 – 50
= 28.5 cm2
(ii) Area of major sector = Area of the circle – Area of he minor sector
= (3.14×102)-78.5
= 235.5 cm2
5. In a circle of radius 21 cm, an arc subtends an angle of 60° at the centre.
Find:
Solution:
Given,
Radius = 21 cm
θ = 60°
= (1/6)×2×(22/7)×21
So, the area of the sector making an angle of 60° = (60°/360°)×π r 2 cm2
= 441/6×22/7 cm2
Or, the area of the sector formed by the arc APB is 231 cm2
= 231-(√3/4)×212
Solution:
Given,
Radius = 15 cm
θ = 60°
So,
= 225/6 πcm2
Now, ΔAOB is equilateral as two sides are the radii of the circle and hence equal and
one angle is 60°
So, Area of ΔAOB = (√3/4) ×a2
Now, the area of minor segment APB = Area of OAPB – Area of ΔAOB
Or, the area of minor segment APB = ((225/6)π – 97.31) cm2 = 20.43 cm2
And,
Area of major segment = Area of the circle – Area of the segment APB
Solution:
Radius, r = 12 cm
Now, draw a perpendicular OD on chord AB, and it will bisect chord AB.
So, AD = DB
= (120/360)×(22/7)×122
= 150.72 cm2
√3/2 = AD/12
Or, AD = 6√3 cm
AB = 2×AD = 12√3 cm
Or, ½ = OD/12
∴ OD = 6 cm
Height = OD = 6
∴ area of the corresponding Minor segment = Area of the Minor sector – Area of
ΔAOB
(i) the area of that part of the field in which the horse can graze.
(ii) the increase in the grazing area if the rope were 10 m long instead of 5 m.
(Use π = 3.14)
Solution:
As the horse is tied at one end of a square field, it will graze only a quarter (i.e.
sector with θ = 90°) of the field with a radius 5 m.
Here, the length of the rope will be the radius of the circle, i.e. r = 5 m
Now, the area of the part of the field where the horse can graze = ¼ (the area of the
circle) = 78.5/4 = 19.625 m2
Now, the area of the part of the field where the horse can graze = ¼ (the area of the
circle)
= 314/4 = 78.5 m2
9. A brooch is made with silver wire in the form of a circle with a diameter 35
mm. The wire is also used in making 5 diameters which divide the circle into
10 equal sectors, as shown in Fig. 12.12. Find:
Diameter (D) = 35 mm
Now, the total length of 5 diameters that would be required = 35×5 = 175
(i) Total length of silver wire required = Circumference of the circle + Length of 5
diameter
= 110+175 = 285 mm
So, the area of each sector = total area of the circle/number of sectors
10. An umbrella has 8 ribs which are equally spaced (see Fig. 12.13). Assuming
the umbrella to be a flat circle of radius 45 cm, find the area between the two
consecutive ribs of the umbrella.
Solution:
So, the area of the circle (A) = πr2 = (22/7)×(45)2 =6364.29 cm2
∴ The area between the two consecutive ribs of the umbrella = A/n
6364.29/8 cm2
Or, The area between the two consecutive ribs of the umbrella = 795.5 cm 2
11. A car has two wipers which do not overlap. Each wiper has a blade of
length 25 cm sweeping through an angle of 115°. Find the total area cleaned at
each sweep of the blades.
Solution:
Given,
Radius (r) = 25 cm
= 2×(115/360)×(22/7)×252
= 2×158125/252 cm2
(Use π = 3.14)
Solution:
Here, the radius will be the distance over which light spreads.
Now, the total area of the sea over which the ships are warned = Area made by the
sector
= (80°/360°)×πr2 km2
= 189.97 km2
13. A round table cover has six equal designs, as shown in Fig. 12.14. If the
radius of the cover is 28 cm, find the cost of making the designs at the rate of
₹ 0.35 per cm2. (Use √3 = 1.7)
Solution:
Since the two arms of the triangle are the radii of the circle and thus are equal, and
one angle is 60°, ΔAOB is an equilateral triangle. So, its area will be (√3/4)×a 2 sq.
units
Here, a = OA
= 410.66 cm2
So, the area of a single design = the area of sector ACB – the area of ΔAOB
So, total cost of making design = 464.76 cm2 ×Rs.0.35 per cm2
= Rs. 162.66
(B) p/180 × π R2
Solution:
Given, θ = p
= (p/360)×2/2×πR2
= (2p/720)×2πR2
P = 90°
So, it can be concluded that QR is the hypotenuse of the circle and is equal to the
diameter of the circle.
∴ QR = D
QR2 = PR2+PQ2
QR= 25 cm = Diameter
= (22/7)×(25/2)×(25/2)/2 cm2
=(½)×7×24 cm2
= 84 cm2

Hence, the area of the shaded region = Area of the Square – Area of two semicircles
= 42 cm2

⇒ AB2 = 3072
⇒ AB= 32√3 cm
Solution:
Side of square = 14 cm
= 77/2 cm2
Area of the shaded region = Area of the square ABCD – Area of the quadrant
= 42 cm2
8. Fig. 12.26 depicts a racing track whose left and right ends are semicircular.
The distance between the two inner parallel line segments is 60 m and they are
each 106 m long. If the track is 10 m wide, find
(i) the distance around the track along its inner edge
Solution:
DE = CF = 60 m
= 60/2 m = 30 m
= 30+10 m = 40 m
Also, AB = CD = EF = GH = 106 m
Distance around the track along its inner edge = CD+EF+2×(Circumference of inner
semicircle)
= 106+106+(2×πr) m = 212+(2×22/7×30) m
= 212+1320/7 m = 2804/7 m
Area of the track = Area of ABCD + Area EFGH + 2 × (area of outer semicircle) – 2 ×
(area of inner semicircle)
= (AB×CD)+(EF×GH)+2×(πr2/2) -2×(πR2/2) m2
= (106×10)+(106×10)+2×π/2(r2-R2) m2
= 2120+22/7×70×10 m2
= 4320 m2
Solution:
Height of ΔBCA = OC = 7 cm
Base of ΔBCA = AB = 14 cm
10. The area of an equilateral triangle ABC is 17320.5 cm2. With each vertex of
the triangle as the centre, a circle is drawn with a radius equal to half the
length of the side of the triangle (see Fig. 12.28). Find the area of the shaded
region (Use π = 3.14 and √3 = 1.73205).
Solution:
∴ ∠ A = ∠ B = ∠ C = 60°
⇒ (side)2 =17320.5×4/1.73205
⇒ (side)2 = 4×104
⇒ side = 200 cm
= 1/6×3.14×(100)2 cm2
= 15700/3cm2
Thus, the area of the shaded region = Area of an equilateral triangle ABC – Area of 3
sectors

= 77/8 cm2
= 7/2 cm2
Area of the shaded region = Area of the quadrant – Area of the triangle BOD
= 6.125 cm2
Side of square = OA = AB = 20 cm
OB2 = AB2+OA2
